The pear.

Green beans falling cross

The edge of this gray household.

The dreams I hold are green too

They capture the nature of my undoing.

The pear with its bright yellow tint

A touch of crisp sweet in a home

A home inside a small city

My grain of sand in this sea.

The strange tint of an yellow pear.

It knows everything it needs.

It is because it has to be,

Or does it have to be because it is? 

I can't seem to capture the light.

this dark room,

I clutch at my conforts to make it right.

I see no vain truth in this building life.

I grab the faith in doing things

And still I can't seem to do them. 

I fade in this sea of green

As it grows in a roaring anthem.

holy santa claus s**t.
who needs to deal with such madness and power words at 10:06 am on the east coast with the rain has been unrelenting for 7 straight days and i just saw my cat float by on a makeshift raft? evil ugliness
anyway...lets give it the ol college try
we are who we are..much like the pear (which now I cant eat in fear that allegorically i may be eating some part of someone or myself)
the repeating of greens and yellows tint everything in uncertainty (or at least thats what the coffee tells me) its got a faithless kick, but also knows exactly what it is. meanwhile, the author succumbs to the green, or the peace found in the pear. fruit..who knew? it kicks layers of lonliness, but safety in that lonliness..almost afear of getting out of that sand, into that bigger city.
"as it grows in roaring anthem" is the perfect end to a very quiet, almost whispered poem. the contrast is f*****g PRIMO.
i think i just blew my poetic wad for the day...
i think ill eat an orange instead

I like the use of the pear to make your point in this poem. Your words create good vision of color and light. I did like how you ended the poem.
"I fade in this sea of green
As it grows in a roaring anthem."
